finished the tax roll books and the foot
ings will show an assessment OF Sl2,-
800, 900, an increase of $4,000 0C0 over
last years assessment. The rate of
taxation will probably be u cents, a
decrease of Z a cent.
Mr.. House says he doesn't get any
of the benefit of this work in a pecu-
liary sense.
The city council has raised the salar-
les of all the officers except Mr. House.
Heretofore he has received per cent
upon his collections ofthc state tax of
railroads from the state the council
has decided that this per cent must go
to the city, and set Mr.. Houses salary
at SO, 200, and the city hire the extra
clerk Mr.. House has paid TO attend
to the railroad work, etc. Mr.. House
is loser, and the city-the gamer, by
the increase in valuation.

New YORK, September 7th.-ISpecial. THE
Star says The most important competition for
sculptors ever known in this country closes to-
day in New Yo.k and on the 18th inst in San
Francisco The terms of the competition offered
by the Lick Trustees involve the expenditure of
SEQ, Goa sum now rarely expended either in
the United States or Europe for historical
statuary. To compete many sculptors III New York
and from abroad receive invitation. Among
those VINO yesterday sent designs were Caspar
Buber, of No. S43 West Thirteenth street Henry
Baererj of No. 769 Broadway (who was the sculp-
tor @ OF Beethoven in the Park) Miss Lawson,
now of Rome (who modelled the Rhodian
Boy y Carl Gerbhart, of Hartford, ana several
Others of minor reputation.
Buber in his letter recommended to the Trus-
tees twelve medallions as a part of the design.
The Missions group tgroup y, is desigHed to
give historical expression TO the missionary en-
terprises of Father Junlpero Sierra and Governor
Portala giving prominence to the figure of the
Spanish conquerer of that century as embody-
ing the best dramatic and picturesque effect in
action and costume, while the Mexican settlers
are portrayed in the supporting figures Buber
suggests six medallons TO ornment the pedestal
-CorteZ, Junipero Sierra. Cabrillo, Governor
Portala, Sir Francis Drake and Alvarado.
The Conquest group p, is designed TO com
memorate the conquest of California, with John
c. Fremont in the van planting the American
standard. Action is seen at a glance. Victory
and joy are expressed by the figures on the left,
and the discovery of gold is told on the right.
He suggests, as medallions here, Commodore
Stockton, John A. Sutter, Isidore Sloate, Thomas
0'Larkin, General Kearney and William NJ.

grouped on the pedestal. There is also space on
the rear OF the pedestal for Industry and Com
merce. The inscriptions are left TO the judg-
ment of the Trustees.

DISAPPOINTED AMBITION.
A Clergyman Who Lacked the Elements
of a Philosophical Mind.

iCopigt, 1887, by tie California Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, September 7th.-tSpecial l-Rev
Fisher, who committed suicide in Los Angeles
Cal, came to Baltimore five years ago from De
troit, having accented call to the Reformed
Episcopal Church of the Redeemer of this city
His re ations with the Nestry were not alto
gether congenial and at the end of twenty
months he accepted a call to the Emmanuel
Church, at Eden and Hoffman streets There
he remained in the active discharge Of his duty
until the list OF July last, when he resigned the
rectorship and went TO California.
All the while Fisher was Il student of the
Johns Hopkins University. He had already re-
ceived the degree of NJ. A. from the Illinois
Wesleyan University, but his object in studying
history and philosophy under DR.. Herbert
B. Adams and Professor Ely was to ob-
tain the! degree of PHI. d. at the Johns
Hopkins University. He failed in the exam
nations of the past two years Though his dis
position was naturally hopeful and buoyant it
is thought his failure to obtain the coveted de-
gree caused him much disappointment, and
weighed Leavily on his mind
When Fisher resigned his charge at the En-
manuel Church he left Baltimore with the
brightest expectations, proposing to open semi
nary. Another cherished prospect was to secure
position as lecturer in the University of Cali
fornia. He was negotiating for the position, and
-acc 1rding to statements he made to friends
he had Il reasonable prospect of getting it. The
only doubt he seemed to have on the subject
when he left was that his failure TO obtain his
degree OF PHI. D. at the Johns Hopkins College
would operate against his securing the desired
position in the University of California.
